    I had a sweet Jeep WJ with an iron rock offroad long arm kit and 37s earlier in life. I waited on sliders. Learned that lesson with a smashed rocker panel. These days I don't wheel hard at all but still had bolt on sliders on my 1st gen and now the 3rd gen, the dent protection is a nice plus for sure.

    A good tonneau recently upgraded to a hardcover if you carry stuff in the bed and sliders. Better to have them and beat those up rather than your body

    Body Armor rock sliders - sliders can get tricky I guess for lack of a better word. I wanted mine for the way I wheel. But if you want steps or are looking for mall parking lot protection Body Armor is probably not want you want.

    For now on 33s I am OK without a re-gear the OTT tune does fine but ideally I want to get a re-gear even with the 33s but definitely when I go bigger to 35s.

    A few super basic recovery items so that if you get tuck you can get pulled out.

    So many reputable brands, stay away from foreign knock offs on Amazon!

    Factor 55 is one of my favorites.
